I think I need to stop wearing my contacts as often as I do, since my eyes are getting irritated frequently. However, I wear sunglasses all the time. Are transition lenses a good option? I have never had them and do not feel like spending money on them if I think I will hate them.

Re: Transition Lenses

My DH has them and he likes them
He said you really don't see or feel them getting darker outside in the sun, it just happens gradually and you aren't getting any glare.

Re: Transition Lenses

I have transition lenses and personally hate them. I seem to be in the minority as my dad and DH both love them. I hate that in pictures they always look dark and that there is an adjustment from inside to outside. Also, I've sensitive to light and so they just aren't dark wnough for me for the hot and bright FL sun. I won't get them again.

Funny you say that. I never got them for that reason. I don't like how they look on others in outdoor pictures.
I also have VERY sensitive eyes when it comes to brightness so not sure they would work for me in that sense either.

My husband insisted on getting them and found out he hates them. They get really dark outside and then when you come in, they stay dark for quite a while and he gets so annoyed by it.

Re: Transition Lenses

I love them but I also got prescription sunglasses for more coverage on my face.

I don't them have because I prefer polarized sunglasses. Annoying to keep switching glasses but I like the coverage better.
